Located in Acadia National Park, this attractive house for $1,120 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Year-round modern house near Northeast Harbor, Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor - on Somes Sound, with extraordinary views throughout the house, in Acadia National Park. This thoughtfully designed unique property commands lovely south and westerly ocean and mountain views across Somes Sound. Surrounded by towering pines and affording plenty of privacy, Copper Top is sure to be a rental favorite with its custom woodwork, beautiful furnishings, and comfortable layout. Each bedroom has its own unique benefit--making it easy to decide who sleeps where. Bedrooms are nicely sized with closets, bureaus, seating and very comfortable beds and linens-- and each near a bathroom with powerful shower heads. We are encourage longer-term rentals and we now have a 2-week minimum during July & August months. Please reach out if interested in a month or longer for the 2024 season. Winter 2023 and into '24 is now more equipped for working remotely w/2 desks, printer and excellent wifi. Updated: We added heat pumps, for bedroom cooling, in 2023. CopperTop was designed and sited into a granite ledge and opens up to a stunning ocean/mountain view that includes "seal ledge", where seals can be observed cavorting on sun-warmed rocks. Refined interior finishes which include luxury mattresses, buttery red birch flooring, a master bath with a walk-in shower and a very large cast iron tub with ocean views. All bathrooms are tiled with great storage and lighting. A chef's kitchen with custom-built kitchen cabinets, honed granite countertops and high-end appliances, a variety of LED lighting that makes this cook's kitchen sing--roomy with lots of counter space and easy to whip out your best recipes. Wifi, Sonos sound system (play your own Spotify/Pandora music), fireplace and lots of extra open well-lit space. One end of the house includes a den with a wide-screen television and its own deck. You can also close off that end of the house w/large custom wooden slider doors-- allowing for study, TV viewing etc--and it also serves as a small living room area for that bedroom on that western end of the house. Downstairs has lots of light, generous ocean views and another bedroom suite with its own tiled bathroom and deck. That downstairs den can either function as living room area for the queen-bedded room or an office with 1 walnut topped standing desk and a small cherry desk and wifi printer and day bed--that room can also be closed off for privacy and quiet study with heavy wooden slider doors --left wide open for easy access to the downstairs deck and pathway to the ocean. The downstairs hallway also leads to a large laundry room and as well as a yoga/movie viewing/play room ---now functioning as another large (5th) bedroom--which also has an ocean and mountain view. We have added a 2nd wide screen TV in that 5th bedroom. Terraced granite steps take you down to the water's edge of Somes Sound--the only natural fjord on the eastern seaboard. The expansive upper deck is perfect for gatherings and sharing the magnificent view, the hush of the wind in the pines, and the call of resident loons, ospreys and eagles. There is also a hot outdoor shower to warm you up after an ocean dip. Copper Top offers you a front row vantage point to watch summer sailboat races and other boating activity, wildlife and harbor seals. We love to swim in Somes Sound, which is significantly warmer than the open ocean and afterwards, sprawling out on the sun-warmed granite rocks. Somes Sound is great perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding etc.

The property is spectacular in every way.
Gorgeous chefs kitchen and we cooked quite a bit. Perfectly located close to hiking in the park and for exploring; its also short walk to Abel’s fantastic lobster pound. Angela is a superb host in every way and was so helpful before arriving and when we were in Maine.

This is a fabulous home with amazing views of the Sound. It was perfect for our family group, which included 5 adults and two children, ages 5 and 8.

The property Coppertop is absolutely stunning. The architecture is a wonderful blend of natural woods and much glass providing a warm setting and bright view of Sommes Sound from virtually every room. The kitchen is very well appointed so we cooked in many nights as we didn't want to leave the property. It was very relaxing trip and close to Acadia and Bar Harbor if we wanted to venture out. Angela was very responsive to questions and her dining recommendations were spot on.
We look forward to returning to Coppertop in years to come.

We stayed for Thanksgiving this year and had a wonderful experience! The home is so beautiful, well designed, relaxing, and great for accommodating groups comfortably. We had a beautiful week - thank you so much Angela!

We enjoyed a week-long stay at magnificent Coppertop this October. The location of the home, in addition to offering incredible views of Somes Sound and breathtaking sunsets, was extremely convenient to Acadia hiking trailheads, Bar Harbor, and many wonderful restaurants and attractions across Mt. Desert. The house is beautifully designed and furnished, with a cook's kitchen that is shockingly well equipped. We have traveled extensively around the world and have been fortunate to stay in some incredible homes and hotels, and our experience at Coppertop would rival many of our favorite trips.
5.0
One of the most beautiful homes we have ever rented. The location and views were phenomenal, the home was laid out extremely well and sparkling clean. Angela was super helpful, even leaving us some goodies upon check in! A great location for scenic nature but convenient to Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor and Southwest Harbor. Indoor and outdoor areas great for groups but also plenty of privacy in the way that the bedrooms/bathrooms are planned out. It also has the most fully stocked kitchen of any home we have ever rented. Tremendous attention to detail inside and out -- we felt completely at home and can't wait to visit again!

My husband and I have rented various homes over the years with family and friends and each has had outstanding features that we have enjoyed. But this was the first house where each room outdid our expectations.
We were greeted with a bottle of wine, chocolate, and a beautiful bouquet of flowers. The architecture of the home was spectacular and it was meticulously spotless. The linens, bedding, and kitchenware were of the highest quality. The kitchen shelves were stocked with more supplies than we could have asked for. The firewood and kindling were generously available. The location was very private and excellent for our daily outings. And the view from the balcony was constantly changing and always stunning.
Thank you Angela for your exceptional attention to every detail. We will always have fond memories of your 5-star house.

Absolute stunning home. Every detail in this house is geared toward architect, beauty, art, nature. Close to everything. Views are unparalleled, as are the animals that chose to visit us everyday. Looking so forward to our return. Our host is deeply gracious. Thank you.

We have rented some very lovely homes, but nothing tops this rental experience. Angela has been such a wonderful host, full of great suggestions for activity and dining. And the home itself was incredible! The architecture is beautiful, with amazing views from 5 of the spacious rooms of the Sound, the rocky outcrops, the seals and water birds, the sailboats, the moonlight, and the sparkling evening lights of homes the opposite shore. The interior is designed for maximum bedroom privacy, with graceful pocket doors providing great flexibility and enabling a 2nd bedroom to have an "ensuite" bathroom. The fireplace, set on a large granite ledge and well stocked with wood and kindling, was a delight. And the kitchen proved to be a phenomenal place to cook. It seemed to have EVERYTHING! Better stocked with specialty pots and pans and appliances than our kitchen at home. And it is so well designed, it was easy for multiple people to work in. And the dining room, with beautiful views of the sound, was a joy. But I cannot omit raving about the deck. A wonderful spot for the eight of us to enjoy morning coffee and evening cocktails, listening to the seals and shore birds. Bring those binoculars!

Coppertop is an architectural gem on Mount Desert Island. The location, siting and design of this home are very special. The property has been in the family of our host, Angela, for decades, and she grew up summering there in the original cabin (now dubbed The Nub, and also available for rent). Coppertop is the newer, bigger structure on the property, set out of sight of The Nub, and has incredible views of Somes Sound. Because of the family's history, familiarity and love or the land, so many details were considered that might not have been. There must also be some incredible cooks in the family because the kitchen is not only spectacular and a fabulous space to work, but is remarkably well equipped with high quality appliances and tools, including sharp knives (telltale). The house is well laid out and offered more than ample privacy for our group of 4 couples. There's no shortage of outdoor experiences and adventures available on MDI, that is assuming you feel compelled to leave the property. Our stay was restful, luxurious and graced by spectacular sunsets each evening which we enjoyed from the huge outdoor deck. We felt incredibly fortunate to be able to spend a week here, and would return in a heartbeat.

We couldn't have picked a better house for our trip to Acadia. Angela's home was beautiful, immaculate and comfortable. The house is very private and only about a 10-15 minute car ride to everything - Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor and Southwest Harbor plus all Acadia trails! I'd go back in a heartbeat. Thanks, Angela, for your excellent communication too!

This property has the “wow” factor. The house is gorgeous and the views are simply incredible. The kitchen is well equipped and the house has all the essentials. The house was spotlessly clean & every room was both comfortable and beautifully decorated. I would love to stay here again in the future. The one note I would highlight for future guests is to bring slippers or indoor-only shoes for the lower level as the floors can be a little slippery in socks. Finally, Angela is very responsive and her list of suggested restaurants and hikes was very helpful. Thanks for a wonderful house for our family vacation!

The house was beautiful with gorgeous views of the lake. It was thoughtfully designed, immaculate and very well maintained. The layout was just perfect for a family of 6 adults and a toddler. The house was centrally located - literally 15 min from Bar Harbor and all the major attractions / hikes. Angela was great - very responsive. We will definitely return and make this our home base for our next visit to Acadia.

We just enjoyed a week at Copper Top with a group of friends. The house was spectacular with incredible views! In addition to the beauty of the house and surroundings, we found the house well equipped, comfortable, and exceptionally clean.
Our host, Angela, was fantastic! She gave us many recommendations for restaurants and activities, had great communication and was attentive to every detail that enhanced our stay.

Delightful
We stay at 3 or 4 VRBO's a year, travelling around. This property is the only one we would move into. Excellent touches, nothing too over the top, just thoughtful care. Host is very responsive and pleasant to communicate with. If you have a chance to stay here, do so. You won't regret it.

A lovely place on the Somes Sound away from the bustle of Bar Harbor but minutes from Acadia NP. A stunning property that will meet all your needs. Seals feeding just off the back deck all week. Loons calling and owls hooting at night.

Extraordinary Accomodations
CopperTop is simply spectacular. The home is truly one of a kind. No matter where you are in the home, the views overlooking the sound are breathtaking. Attention to detail was clearly a hallmark of its design and construction, and Angela's attention to detail in making our stay comfortable and relaxing was wonderful. Upon arrival, there was absolutely nothing to do but settle in and relax. We rarely return to the same place twice, as we believe there are so many places to see, however, our experience with Angela and our stay at CopperTop may be the exception for sure.

We just spent our vacation at this wonderful house! There is not one bad thing I can say about our stay here. There were 8 adults here with plenty of room, from the extraordinary kitchen, comfy family room with the fireplace to the spacious deck with spectacular views of the sound!
Location was great also, 15 minutes to Bar Harbor, 10 minutes to Northeast Harbor, 25 minutes to southwest Harbor and an hour and ten minutes to Schoodic peninsula. Much of the town was beginning to shut down by the end of our week for the end of the season.
Our host, Angela is top notch, taking care of every little detail to make for a memorable stay!
I recommend Coppertop and hope to make it back some day!!!

Luxurious Relaxation on the Water
You know this home is "special" the moment you see how it melds into its surroundings. Upon entering, the calm waters of Somes Sound remove any stress and as you explore, the refinement of every detail of the house is revealed. The wood burning fireplace is the centerpiece, with enough wood to last months. For those who love to cook, the best cookware, sharpened knives and every kitchen gadget you can imagine. Sliding pocket doors separate one end of the house from the other if privacy is desired, and a huge outdoor deck is perfect for absorbing the beauty of nature. Truly a SPECIAL place you will never forget.

Ideally located family home on MDI. Architect’s dream house with stunning views of the cove throughout. The use of wood, granite and glass make this property almost invisible as it blends in perfectly with the natural environment.

I have rented a lot of houses and this was my favorite, by far. It is comfortable and well laid out with a lovely main room where everyone can be together. The spaces take great advantage of the beautiful views of Some Sound. The kitchen is lovely for cooking with plenty of counter space. It was also the best-equipped kitchen I’ve ever seen in a rental, and had all the items I have in my own home kitchen – excellent pots and pans, a good zester, salad spinner – the kind of items a rental home kitchen rarely has. Also the home was perfectly cleaned and beautifully prepared for our arrival with a bouquet of flowers, a blueberry pie and a bottle of cava.
Perhaps the best part about this house is that everything is so aesthetically pleasing. The walls are lined in gleaming wood, the furniture is a lovely mix of old and new that blends perfectly together, and everything from the upholstery to the table cloth to the dishes are tasteful. In short, it was perfect.

Coppertop is the best
My wife, two children and I spent two weeks at Coppertop at the end of August. It was an amazing vacation and a nice respite from a very busy Bar Harbor. Having the Giant Slide trail down the street was super convenient for hiking and the Parkman lot is two miles down the road which allows easy access to the carriage roads.
The house is wonderful. What you see is what you get. It is well stocked and very comfortable. Angela is super diligent and you can see how much she cares about the property. We especially enjoyed watching the seals bob in the water with the telescope. They were there everyday.

An exceptional house, with a very welcoming and communicative host. House is even better than the pictures. Simply stunning. Pristine condition and perfectly positioned as a way to enjoy all that the island has to offer. Dealing with the host, Angela, was both easy and enjoyable. We really appreciated her attention to detail and how genuinely invested she was in our stay being an enjoyable one. [The den area is a great work-from-home option, and the house has a very reliable high-speed internet connection.] We will be back!
